Lucy Letby prided herself on caring for infants. 

The neonatal nurse cared for the most vulnerable of patients: newborns. Then, the hospital noticed that more infants died in the span of a month than would typically die in a year. An investigation reveals that Letby had been the sole nurse working at the time of seven babies. 

The child deaths span over the course of a year with, again, seven babies dying, while six others survived. Letby made babies sick by injecting intravenous lines with air, some were poisoned, and others were force-fed milk.     

Letby preyed on twins and triplets. Now, a major new documentary has been released on Netflix,  titled The Investigation of Lucy Letby.

PROLIFIC INFANT KILLER NICU NURSE WHINES BEHIND BARS, BEING  MOCKED BY INMATES OVER HER NEW NETFLIX DOCUMENTARY

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/c6958f07-72cc-41d7-b4e4-b3f30183b05d/transcript

Gabby Petito was strangled by her then boyfriend Brian Laundrie while the pair were on a cross-country van trip. The FBI report states that Laundrie confesses to the murder in a hand written notebook, found near the remains of Laundrie's body after he committed suicide.  According to the report, Laundrie tried to cover up Petito's death by using the woman's debit card, and then also sending text messages from her phone, to give the impression that Gabby was still alive. During the trip, a domestic violence episode was caught on Moab police body cam, after a 911 call came in reporting a man slapping a woman. 

The footage shows Petito was injured with scratches and  bruises. Police determined however that Petito was the aggressor, after she admitted hitting Laundrie.   The pair was separated for the night, with no domestic violence counseling. 

Petito's family filed a wrongful death lawsuit against the Moab Police Department. Utah's 7th District Court Judge Don Torgerson dismissed the case, citing governmental immunity. Torgerson said he is bound to follow the law as it currently exists and follow rulings of other courts. The Petito's attorney argued to end just the police immunity.  He added the Court of Appeals has the authority to determine whether the governmental immunity law is constitutional.

Now the case heads to the Utah Supreme Court.

After Gut Punch, Gabby Petito's Family Case Makes Its Way to Utah Supreme Court

Speculation is that there is an accomplice to the man seen on porch video at Nancy Guthrie's home. In the video, it appears he turns to speak to someone.

Who could be helping?
